Lin Yi and his team sacrificed themselves to clear the Endless Tower’s seventh floor, then spent two years training. When the Ash Star Domain battlefield opened, Lin Yi received East Blade’s first Tier 2 combat mission and ordered the fleet to prepare for departure.

• Star Firefly, Amber, Mo Yuan, and Lei Hao destroyed four mirror images at the cost of their lives, while Awen Whisper empowered Lin Yi and Kenkes distracted the remaining enemies.
• Lin Yi used Reverse Fate to Source and the Black Annihilation Thunder Spear to destroy the final four mirror images, clearing the seventh floor before his body disintegrated.
• Lin Yi led the restored team out of the tower, declined to attempt the eighth floor, and received congratulations and offers of support from Hui Yao, Qing Lan, and other prodigies.
• Over the next two years, Lin Yi and his team trained intensively and improved their teamwork after reviewing the sacrifices made in the tower.
• Xuanji informed Lin Yi that the Ash Star Domain battlefield had opened and that East Blade had received a Tier 2 mission; Lin Yi ordered Level One combat readiness and set the fleet’s destination.
• East Blade’s fleet departed the 93778th Frontier Legion outpost for the Ash Star Domain as other mercenary corps watched its movements and prepared to offer support.

Lin Yi and the East Blade Mercenary Corps were sent to reinforce Helios Base on Red Blood Star and hold it until reinforcements arrived. As the base faced a massive Kunmo assault, East Blade’s drop pods struck the battlefield, and Lin Yi emerged from the central pod.

• Kaila assigned Lin Yi’s 532 Star Core Level warriors to defend Helios Base and protect the Deep Space Source Energy Condenser for seven days.
• Lin Yi ordered the East Blade Mercenary Corps to board drop pods while Irelia stayed with the North Wind in orbit.
• Cang Ming watched the drop pods descend toward Red Blood Star and wondered what Lin Yi would prove in the battle.
• Commander Tavik learned that the Thunder Spear Corps would not arrive for seven days and that East Blade was approaching as backup.
• The Kunmo assault overwhelmed Helios Base’s outer defenses, forcing Tavik to head for the eastern line as Noah took temporary command.
• East Blade’s drop pods slammed into the landing field, crushing nearby Kunmo units, and Lin Yi stepped out of the central pod.

Lin Yi used an immense Domain Extension to erase the low-level Kunmo swarm around Helios and cripple its stronger forces, allowing the Star Realm Army and East Blade to reclaim ground. Kunmo commander Zagar learned the attack obeyed battlefield rules and requested a Blade Prince-level genius to assassinate Lin Yi.

• More than five hundred East Blade warriors formed squads to reinforce the front while twenty peak Star Core Level Spirit Race warriors guarded Lin Yi.
• Lin Yi spread his domain across the plateau, turning hundreds of millions of low-level insects into motes and heavily injuring the surviving high-level Kunmo units.
• Commander Tavik ordered a counterattack, and the Star Realm Army and East Blade eliminated many wounded insects and retook outer positions.
• Lin Yi told Tavik that the attack had drained him and that he needed time to recover, while Tavik warned that the Kunmo would adapt for another assault.
• Zagar demanded an investigation, learned that Lin Yi's domain attack complied with battlefield rules, and requested a Blade Prince-level genius for a decapitation mission.

Lin Yi used Spirit Enlightenment Qi to locate the Kunmo Race command core and launched a solo strike that destroyed it, throwing the enemy forces around Helios Base into chaos. He returned to the base exhausted but successful, leaving the defenders with several days to recover and await reinforcements.

• Zagar changed the Kunmo Race’s tactics to sustained attacks intended to exhaust Helios Base and force Lin Yi to use his large-scale attack.
• Tavik warned Lin Yi that the attacks were a trap, while East Blade fighters helped keep the exhausted Star Realm Army’s morale from collapsing.
• Lin Yi used Spirit Enlightenment Qi to work out how to detect synchronized signals in the Kunmo Race mental network and found its command core beneath a crater northeast of the base.
• Lin Yi refused Tavik’s offer of support and raced alone to the crater, where he destroyed Zagar and the command core’s gathered forces with a focused domain attack.
• The Kunmo forces lost coordination and retreated in confusion as Lin Yi returned to Helios Base, and Tavik estimated that rebuilding their command structure would take four or five days.

After East Blade helped secure Helios Base and earned substantial Battle Merit, Lin Yi honored the fallen and returned with the corps to recover. Cang Ming told Lin Yi that their master would attend a gathering in six months, and the chapter ended with Bark warning that something had happened on Red Blood Star.

After watching the footage, Lin Yi sought help from his senior brother Cang Ming so he could learn the Kunmo’s capabilities and plan his revenge.

• Bark told Lin Yi that a Kunmo expert had raided the Helios base’s Command Headquarters, killing its senior officers, though the base and defensive line held.
• Lin Yi suspected the attack was retaliation for killing a Kunmo commander and asked General Luger for details and access to the surveillance footage.
• General Luger showed Lin Yi footage of the Kunmo using a Domain to incapacitate the Command Center, questioning the wounded officers about Lin Yi, and killing them when they refused to answer.
• General Luger warned Lin Yi not to approach Red Blood Star or a Level 2 battlefield until the legion learned more about the Kunmo, and Lin Yi left without making a promise.
• Lin Yi returned to his quarters and asked Xuanji to arrange an immediate Virtual Network meeting with Cang Ming to learn the Kunmo’s strength, abilities, and whereabouts.

After learning that the Kunmo Blade Prince had left the K-77 Star Domain and was beyond his current strength, Lin Yi resumed cultivation and spent half a year preparing for a sect gathering. He met several powerful senior siblings at the gathering, including the Eternal Deities Zhen Yu and Qian Huan.

• Lin Yi asked Cang Ming about the Kunmo that had killed his comrades, and Cang Ming explained that it had left the region after failing to find him.

• Cang Ming eased the tense mood and asked Lin Yi what rule he planned to pursue next.

• Qian Huan said she had no suitable Space Rule treasure, then offered Lin Yi a hundred thousand life-bearing planets to support Silver Blue's development.

Qian Huan gifted Lin Yi’s Silver Blue Civilization sovereignty over one hundred thousand developed life-bearing planets.

Irelia warned him against giving planets away outright and proposed separate arrangements that would protect his interests and prevent future conflict.

• Irelia advised Lin Yi to sell planets to the Shina Family at a discount and lease planets to the Silver Blue Civilization in exchange for merit, preserving his control and avoiding resentment or future disputes.

Lin Yi and Irelia agreed to sell the Shina Family life-bearing planets at a 60 percent price, with payment deferred so the family would owe Lin Yi and be bound more closely to him. As the clan leaders faced mounting shortages and internal dissent, news of Lin Yi’s offer sent Clan Leader Liyue rushing to meet him on the Virtual Network.

• Irelia proposed setting a high enough price for the planets that the Shina Family would need to borrow from Lin Yi, making him the clan’s biggest creditor and strengthening their alliance.

Lin Yi judged he could reach the required domain fusion in time, then sent relocation plans to the Shina Family and Silver Blue Commonwealth as they began settling into their new Star Domain.
